What are cookies?

Cookies are tiny text files which are stored on your computer when you visit certain websites. At Protec, our website uses cookies to keep track of what you have in your basket, to remember you when you return to our website, and to provide us with anonymous site usage statistics.

To order products on the protection.co.uk website, you need to have cookies enabled (see the 'Managing cookies' section below). If you don't wish to enable cookies, you'll still be able to browse the site and use it for research purposes, but if you want to place an order you will need to contact us to arrange this for you.

We're giving you this information about cookies as part of our initiative to comply with recent EU legislation, and to make sure we're clear about your privacy when using our website.

Our cookies policy

To make full use of the online ordering features on the protection.co.uk website, your computer, tablet or mobile phone will need to accept cookies, as we can only provide you with online ordering features by using them.

Our cookies do NOT store any sensitive date such as your name, address or payment details: they simply allow our website to recognise you and provide us with anonymous website usage statistics.

This helps us to improve the way our website works, for example by making sure users are finding what they need easily.
